``News of the deal comes just a day after a JPMorgan was reported to have reached a tentative $4 billion settlement with the Federal Housing Finance Agency over claims it sold bad mortgages to government agencies ahead of the financial crisis

If finalized, the settlement would be the largest the U.S. government has ever made with a single company, according to WSJ.''
